The hair that shows when you wear a bathing suit is what hair-removal products otherwise call as bikini area. Many women like to get rid of this private hair problem.
When you shave the hair, you get a stubbly look and that starts itching after some time. So, women prefer depilatories or waxing.
A depilatory is a cream or liquid that removes hair from the skin’s surface. Depilatories work quickly and are painless. But some people have an allergic reaction to the chemicals in the depilatory, which may cause a rash or inflammation.
In waxing, hot wax is applied over the area from where the hair is to be removed. A cotton cloth is then used to remove those unwanted hairs easily.
Waxing can sting a bit while it’s being done, but the results last longer than with shaving or depilatories because it takes longer for the hair to grow back.
Other options for hair removal are laser hair removal and electrolysis, although these can be expensive.
